FMM: A path to Cross

Dad's cassette tape collection is the reason why I have a diverse taste in music.

Imagine, being 6 years old and exposed to all these great names in music. From the classics like Frank Sinatra and Shirley Bassey, to instrumental artists like Ferrante and Teicher and Richard Clayderman. From wind experts Herb Alpert, Chuck Mangione to jazz great Seawind.

One of the cassette tapes I'd always go back to was Christopher Cross. There was something about his songs that was so soothing. Most likely, it comes from the fact that he has this really cool voice which works well with the laid-back melodies that he sings.

And on a laid-back Friday like this, I think it's time to bring out Christopher Cross.





I'm so glad to have crossed paths with his music again.
